Concepts of Earth and Chemistry

Course Description

This is the suggested course sequence that allows one core area of science to be studied per semester. You
can change the sequence of the semesters per the needs or interests of your student; materials for each
semester are independent of one another to allow flexibility.

Semester 1: Earth

Blending a creationism perspective of history with definitions of terms and identification of famous
explorers, scientists, etc., this book gives students an excellent initial knowledge of people and places,
encouraging them to continue their studies in-depth.

Semester 2: Chemistry

Chemistry is an amazing branch of science that affects us every day, yet few people realize it, or even give
it much thought. Without chemistry, there would be nothing made of plastic, there would be no rubber
tires, no tin cans, no televisions, no microwave ovens, or something as simple as wax paper. This book
presents an exciting and intriguing tour through the realm of chemistry as each chapter unfolds with
facts and stories about the discoveries of discoverers. Find out why pure gold is not used for jewelry or
coins. Join Humphry Davy as he made many chemical discoveries, and learn how they shortened his
life. See how people in the 1870s could jump over the top of the Washington Monument. Exploring the
World of Chemistry brings science to life and is a wonderful learning tool with many illustrations and
biographical information.
